I wasn't sure what to title it, i'm not entirly sure its a problem.
here goes.
In my tank it has
4 blue acaras (2 males 2 females)
mics dithers (Platies, danios etc.)
2 Bronze corydoras
My Alpha male (In previous thread) has paired with the alpha female. They both seem like they want to spawn. But become distracted and never end up courting each other. Both male and female always end up chasing something out of their territory, most often than not their competition (the other acara's). Would perhaps removing the other 2 blue acaras aid in them spawning? or are they a good "buffer" to help the 2 stay paired?
When I first had them, both females tried and thought they were paired with the alpha male. They both laid eggs and he never chose which female he wanted to go with, he has seem to have chosen now. But would it be a good idea to remove the other acara's? I would like to see them spawn and have many fry.
